Save time and money with accounts receivable automation

Digitizing your invoicing process makes it easier for your clients to pay, and for you to get paid. By adding credit card payments to an e-invoice, you can eliminate manual work, cut costs, and reduce your time to getting paid from 28 days to 1.

Seamless connections with your back-office financial systems

Trace AR™ easily connects to your accounting and ERP systems to provide AR automation and simple reconciliation in a central hub to manage your accounting processes.

Create a B2B invoice payment link with Trace AR

Sending a digital payment link speeds up both invoice delivery and payment. You can expect faster “invoice to cash” while eliminating manual processes and lowering resource costs. Credit card payments also offer the benefit of lower fraud rates than payments made with paper checks and wire transfers.

Your customers benefit from automation

Your clients can pay using the payment method they want on your customized web payment form. E-invoicing improves customer satisfaction by making their payments easier to submit and track.

Reduce days sales outstanding (DSO) from 28 days to 1

Infographic comparing the Accounts Receivable (AR) process without automation versus with automation. The top half, titled 'AR Process WITHOUT Automation,' outlines a 10-step process taking 28-45 days, including customer purchase, invoicing, mail/email delivery, invoice receipt, approval routing, check payment by customer, payment receipt, batching for deposit by the merchant, and deposit in the bank. Each step is depicted with an icon, such as a credit card for purchase and a mail envelope for invoice delivery. The bottom half, titled 'AR Process WITH Automation,' shows a simplified 3-step process enabled by PayTrace, which results in 85% of digital payments being received within 1 week. The steps include customer purchase, merchant receiving the deposit in the bank, and the highlighted advantage of faster payment receipt. The graphic uses a color scheme of black, orange, and purple, with icons inside circles to represent each step, and a banner across the top indicating the lengthy process time for the non-automated method.
The image displays two flowcharts describing the accounts receivable process with and without PayTrace automation. The top section, highlighted in orange and titled 'With PayTrace automation,' states that '85% of e-invoices are paid within one week' and illustrates a three-step process: 'Customer makes purchase,' followed by the PayTrace automation icon, and ending with 'Merchant receives deposit in bank.' The bottom section, outlined in purple and titled 'Without PayTrace automation,' indicates that 'traditional payment processes can take 28 to 45 days.' It details a ten-step process beginning with 'Customer makes purchase,' followed by steps for invoicing, time for mail/email delivery, invoice receipt, routing for approval, check payment by the customer, time for mail, merchant receiving payment, batching payments for deposit, and ending with 'Merchant receives deposit in bank.' Icons represent each step, emphasizing the increased efficiency and speed when using PayTrace automation.
